Chapter 422 It’s New Year’s Eve Again ()

Jinyang.

Hurrying slowly, Liu Han finally led his troops back a few days before New Year's Eve.

So with a wave of his hand, everyone was given a big holiday and a very generous New Year gift.

Liu Han also worked hard for a year and came back to spend time with his family.

Cai Yan has been pregnant for eight months and will give birth in two months, so Liu Han naturally has to stay with her at all times.

Diao Chan was as sensible as ever and took care of her and Zhang Ning's children. Zhang Ning also followed his father's wishes and guarded the northern border of the Han Dynasty, never coming back for more than a few days a year.

Cai Yan also said to Zhang Ning about this. She is a mother. Even if she doesn't think about herself, she still has to think about her children. However, people have their own ideas, so Cai Yan will let her go. As long as she doesn't follow the principles The problem is that there is a conflict.

It's Chinese New Year, so Zhang Ning will naturally come back. This womanly and heroic female general from the North will only show her tenderness to Liu Han.

Liu Han would not treat one favorably or favorably over another, and he would also treat her with care and concern.

"I have released so many talented people in the north, why do you have to go to that muddy water every year?"

Although the south has been fighting, Liu Han has never let down his guard against the north. At present, the southern Xiongnu have been destroyed, Wuhuan is just lingering, Xianbei is divided internally, and the northwest Qiang people are licking their wounds in Xiliang.

But under such circumstances, Liu Han placed 100,000 troops, including 60,000 cavalry, in Bingzhou and northern Youzhou, and 40,000 troops, including 20,000 cavalry, in Sanfu.

This is also the reason why Liu Han did not have many cavalry in the civil war even though he had such a large number of cavalry. '

"I……"

Zhang Ning wanted to explain, but in the end she chose to remain silent. She really couldn't explain that she couldn't live a life of fine clothing and fine food.

Liu Han also saw that she had something to hide, "But who bullied you?"

Zhang Ning quickly denied: "No, no! The princess is very good to us, but it's just me..."

"Okay, as long as you know what's going on, there's one thing - safety. No matter what you do, you must ensure your own safety and don't take risks. Your safety is related to many people, you know?"

Zhang Ning looked at the man who had been married to him for many years with tears in his eyes. His father had passed away. He had been very busy over the years, but he had always taken care of himself. If it were anyone else, who would allow a woman to be away from home all year round, or in a military camp, and not in a military camp? Although she had a bad reputation and was suspected of being involved in military power, her husband still helped her fulfill her wish despite a lot of pressure. Isn't it worth it for such a man?
"Well, I will."

Zhang Ning solemnly assured Liu Han that this was not a joke. If something happened to her, many people would suffer.

The Saint of Taiping is destined to have a very high reputation among the people under her rule. When millions of Yellow Turbans moved north, they were all Yellow Turban thieves and thieves, and they shared weal and woe.

But this was destined that she would not be able to participate in the struggle for imperial power, so Liu Han assured her to go to the north.

"Ning'er, look it's getting late..."

Zhang Ning rolled his eyes at Liu Han: "It's all my husband's fault."

……

……

……

Its daybreak.

At the end of the year, the major caravans also paid dividends. As the economy of various places recovered, it was also a good year. Everyone received valuable new year goods and their faces were beaming with joy.

Giving out new year's goods was a custom that started after Liu Han came to Bingzhou and established his business. It has been extended to the present. People are given more in fat years and less in thin years, but not all, just for the sake of celebration.

In addition to New Year's goods before the New Year, there are also red envelopes after the New Year. These are unique customs under Liu Han's rule.

What is good above is effective below.

As long as it is under Liu Han's rule, the governors of various states, counties and even counties will do this. They will do what they can according to the income of this year. If nothing else, just do this, it can really win people's hearts.

In addition, there are caravans and chambers of commerce who also follow Liu Han's example. They are more generous than local yamen, especially those engaged in maritime trade. They can earn a lot from a trip to the sea.

Of course, the largest maritime trade business is Liu Han's caravan, accounting for 60% of the total, and the remaining 40% is owned by various large and small families.

"New Year's goods for current soldiers under the rule, New Year's goods for retired soldiers, and pensions for fallen soldiers must be fully paid. There will be no corruption or deduction. Yuan Hao pays close attention to this matter. Who dares to reach out and doesn't mind seeing blood during the New Year? ”

"Here."

Finally, this year there are no disasters or diseases, and we will have a good harvest. No one wants to get into trouble with Liu Han at this time.

"The materials from Yanzhou and Yuzhou must be sent in sufficient quantities. We have just experienced a war, and we must appease the people. Zhongde has worked hard on this." "My lord, I obey."

The New Year's Eve banquet was very lively.

As night falls, the lanterns are turned on, and the carved beams and painted buildings are even more magnificent under the candlelight. The wind chimes on the porch swayed gently in the wind, making a crisp and sweet sound, adding a melodious rhythm to this grand banquet.

In the banquet hall, there are exquisite jade tableware, exuding a faint luster. The table is filled with all kinds of delicacies, which are delicious in color, fragrance and mouth-watering. The delicacies are dotted with exquisite silverware and jade, which are full of brilliance and highlight the nobility and wealth of the host.

The ministers and their wives came to the banquet dressed in gorgeous clothes, chatting and laughing in low voices, or raising glasses and drinking. Their faces were filled with joy and peace.

The women did not sit at the same table as the men, but had a banquet in a side hall across a screen. Their dresses were like the gorgeous clouds on the horizon, and the jewelry they wore shone dazzlingly under the light.

During the banquet, there was melodious music and graceful dancing. The musicians played guzheng, pipa and other musical instruments, and the melodies were beautiful and intoxicating. The dancers, dressed in gorgeous costumes, danced gracefully. Their movements were light and graceful, just like fairies descending from the sky.

The entire banquet hall was filled with the rich aroma of wine and dishes, and the air was also mixed with the faint smell of agarwood and ambergris, which was refreshing. Everyone forgot about the troubles of the world, immersed in food, wine and laughter, and celebrated the arrival of the new year together.

"Everyone, this cup is dedicated to my son who is still working hard today. Drink it holy!"

"Drinking Saint!"

"Drinking Saint!"

"This second cup, I would like to express my gratitude to all of you here. Without your help, how can we have peace today?"

"To your Majesty!"

Everyone followed Liu Han and drank a lot. Liu Han looked at his men Wen Wu, Ju Shou, Tian Feng, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu... Huang Zhong, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Xu Huang, Taishi Ci...Sun Qian...

They were originally Cao Cao's, Yuan Shao's, Liu Bei's, and even the Soochow rats, but now they are all their own.
"This third cup...I want to pay homage to those fallen heroes and heroes of the past in the Hall of Heroes!"

After saying that, Liu Han bowed in the direction of the Heroes' Soul Temple, and then spilled the wine in the wine bottle on the ground.

This is a heavy topic, and everyone's heart is heavy. Since the beginning of Bingzhou's war against the aliens, no less than 100,000 people have been killed or injured, and new names are constantly being added to the list of the Heroic Soul Temple.

"Heroes, especially those who defend the country, will never be forgotten, and the descendants of Gu will not forget them. As long as the great man is still there, the incense of the Heroes' Shrine will never be cut off!"

The Han nationality, as a nation with thousands of years of civilized history, is a nation full of heroes. In the long course of history, the Han people not only created a splendid Chinese culture, but also emerged countless brave and intelligent heroes.

Among these heroes are generals who fought bloody battles to defend the country, revolutionaries who sacrificed their lives and blood for national independence and people's happiness, and outstanding talents who have made outstanding achievements in science, technology, culture, art and other fields. Their deeds and spirit form an important part of the Han national spirit and inspire future generations to keep moving forward.

In the ancient war years, Han military generals were famous for their bravery, skill in battle, and their wisdom and courage. They are not only proficient in martial arts, but also good at using intelligence to win by surprise.

In the moment of national crisis in modern times, heroes of the Han nationality emerged in endlessly. They did not hesitate to pay the price of their lives for the independence of the country and the liberation of the people.

But the history book is too small to accommodate so many names, and many people have become unknown heroes.

"They sacrificed their lives for our peace. We, and our descendants, must not forget them!"

The civil servants and generals present here were excited when they heard Liu Han's words. They must be famous in history, and fame and wealth are nothing!

This is a romance unique to the Han people.

You sacrifice your life for the country, die in battle, your incense will be yours during every year and festival, and your family tree will be opened on a separate page. No Han Chinese can refuse such a temptation.

"The military song should be sung with a big sword and a ring, and we swear to destroy the Hu Nu and leave the Jade Pass.

Just die for the country on the battlefield, why should you return your body wrapped in horse leather? "

The Han people were adept at martial arts, and Dian Wei and Zhang Fei were inspired by Liu Han's poems and shouted loudly: "The Han Dynasty will be victorious!"

"The great man is victorious!"

"The great man is victorious!"

"..."

Tian Feng, Ju Shou and other civil servants were also shouting at the top of their lungs.

Only Zheng Xuan, Cai Yong, and Duan Xi looked at it with tears in their eyes.

"If the monarch and his ministers work together as one, there is hope for the Chinese nation to revive! There is hope for the country to revive the country!"

"It's not just that! Zhong Qing's ambition is far more than that!"
